Leadership Approaches and Improved Performance

I need 3-4 pages on this topic to add to a 35 page report I will be compiling. APA style.

Leadership Focus:

At the beginning of 2009, we are under new leadership in our federal government, having just passed one of the most historically important elections in our history. Using that as a background, suggest why the Republican candidate was not elected, and some of the leadership-oriented reasons for that failure.

Leadership. Given a situation where a manager has not been successful using a particular leadership approach, analyze the situation, identify and explain how at least three key factors contributed to this leadership failure, and recommend a leadership approach that should be taken to improve performance. Provide rationale for your recommended approach. (Note: Please do not simply provide a generic description extracted from the textbook, relate your descriptions to the situation).
